مقدمة

The Esautomotion numeric controls feature in benders, enhanced by the ESA S860 Integrated CAD, enables users to draw key graphic elements like the machine’s parts, punch, die, and the workpiece. This functionality ensures accurate verification of bending sequences. For guidance on accessing these drawings, consult the brief handbook.

Drawing Function

The drawing function works by tracing the straight line segments in accordance with the data entered by the operator. The data can be entered in either polar format or Cartesian format, however use of the polar format is recommended to make the settings more user-friendly.

Polar Setting of the Drawing Data

The ESA S860 Integrated CAD simplifies the process of defining drawing sections by allowing you to set essential data such as section length and angle relative to the next section. Ensure that angles fall within ± 180.0°. When entering angles, adhere to the prescribed conventions for accuracy.

For the Cartesian setting of drawing data, the ESA S860 Integrated CAD enables you to define sections using coordinates that represent the difference between the segment’s start and end points. Remember, these coordinates are relative to the segment’s start as depicted in the accompanying documentation.

Before drawing any graphic element, it’s crucial to input general data specific to the drawing object. The ESA S860 Integrated CAD requires users to consult object-specific guidelines to ensure accurate input of these details.

By utilizing the features of the ESA S860 Integrated CAD, you can streamline your design process and achieve precision in your manufacturing drawings.

Mask of Drawing

To activate the drawing mask using the ESA S860 Integrated CAD, simply navigate to the [يتأكد] key and press [يدخل]. The drawing mask is composed of several key areas:

• Area 1: Drawing Information
  This window displays essential details such as the file name, the current drawing step, and the scale factor used.
• Area 2: Graphic Tracing
  Here, you can view the drawing that corresponds to your entered data, allowing for real-time visualization.
• Area 3: Polar Settings
  This section allows you to input the section length “l” and the angle “Alpha” compared to the next section, facilitating precise adjustments.
• Area 4: Cartesian Settings
  Enter the Cartesian coordinates “DX” and “DY” here, which represent the differences between initial and final section coordinates.

For guidance on using these areas effectively, the ESA S860 Integrated CAD’s detailed handbook provides descriptions on setting the data specific to each graphic object. Exploring these functionalities will enable you to optimize your drawing tasks efficiently.

Entering Data of the Drawing

With the ESA S860 Integrated CAD, accessing the drawing in Area 2 automatically generates the first section at a standard length, highlighted in red. Use the arrow keys to change the drawing direction. Ensure any value in Field “l” in Area 3 is confirmed by pressing ENTER, particularly on S860 Touch and S660W models.

How to Enter a Drawing in Polar Mode

Entering a drawing in polar mode with the ESA S860 Integrated CAD system is streamlined for efficiency. First, if your cursor isn’t in Field “l” of Area 3, activate the polar setting mode by pressing [Next Menu] و [Polar Format]. Once activated, follow these easy steps to enter the drawing data:

1. Section Length and Angle:
   • Enter the length of the section. The section will automatically rescale, and the cursor will move to the “alpha” Field for angle input.
   • Input the angle relative to the next section. This section will turn blue and the next segment, which will become the current section, will be drawn in red. A circle will indicate the section being entered.
2. Data Entry Cycle:
   • Continue entering length and angle data pairs until the entire drawing is complete.
   • If measurements exceed the window dimensions, the drawing is rescaled automatically, updating the scale factor in Area 1.
3. Finalizing the Drawing:
   • To finalize, set the last section’s angle to zero.
4. Selecting and Modifying Data:
   • Use the and keys to scroll through drawing data. Highlight sections to view current segment numbers in Area 1.
   • To change data, select the value, enter a new value, and press [ENTER] to update the drawing based on new inputs.
5. Using Directional Keys:
   • Use directional arrows and keys like [Home], [PgUp], [PgDn]، و [End] to navigate segments. These keys also allow diagonal movement and automatically enter angles in the “alpha” Field.
6. Deleting and Inserting Sections:
   • To delete a section, select the section data and press the delete key. Subsequent sections will adjust based on preceding angles.
   • Insert new sections by selecting [Insert], extending the current side by 20 mm. Input values for the new segment to configure the drawing as needed.

Using the directional arrows and keys on the touch keyboard

The directional keys move both horizontally or vertically through the segments.

The directional keys move diagonally through the segments.

The existing angle is automatically entered in the “alpha“ Field between the current section and the segment traced depending on the directional key that has been pressed. This angle must be confirmed with the [يدخل] key if you want to move on and enter the length of the new section.

Implementing these steps with the ESA S860 Integrated CAD ensures efficient drawing entry and modification, allowing you to maximize productivity and precision in your CAD projects.

How to Use the Cartesian Format

When defining a segment isn’t feasible in polar format, the ESA S860 Integrated CAD system allows you to easily switch to Cartesian format. Here’s how you can do it:

Activation Steps:

1. Navigate to the drawing section you’re working on and press [Next Menu] followed by [Cartesian Format]. The cursor will automatically move to Area 4.
2. Enter the horizontal axis difference between the start and end points in the DX Field.
3. Enter the vertical axis difference in the DY Field.
4. Confirm your entries by pressing [يدخل], and the ESA S860 Integrated CAD will trace the new segment for you.

To revert back to the polar format, simply press the [Polar Format] key again.

By following these steps, you can efficiently use the Cartesian format within the ESA S860 Integrated CAD environment, enhancing your design capabilities.
